led tail lights
I purchased a set of led tail light from Makoto auto trends about two month ago. I just put them on and they look great but the turn singals flash real fast and that is driving me insane. How do I stop that from happening? I called the place up and they said they will give me my money back but I don't want to get rid of the lights because they make the car look good. So please help. Thanks inadvanes John

You need the special flasher to go with it. Your car is thinking that there is a light out on your signal due to the much lower volts the leds use. The fast flash is just the way the car tells you there is a light out.

You can use a load resistor on the powerside of the two outside lights.
call webelectric see if they will sell you a few.
Connect power load resistor to ground and you should be ok the current draw is not high enough.
turn signal +-----{resistor}------ground
